Sobot

Diane M. Sobot, 98, of Concordia Lutheran Ministries in Cabot, went home to be with her Lord and Savior on Friday, Aug. 26, 2022.

Diane was born in Prague, Czechoslovakia, on Feb. 7, 1924, the daughter of Bohumila and Wenceslas Tesarek.

Growing up during World War II, they experienced hardship and her mother was taken one day by the "SS." The two teenage girls spent the night on their knees in prayer and Mom came back! They then gave up everything and escaped just after the war's end before the Soviets stopped most travel. They got passage to Canada, where Diane met her future husband in Toronto.

Diane was a devoted wife to Charles, her husband of 61 years, who predeceased her in 2016, and mother. She enjoyed cooking, entertaining, reading and was an accomplished piano player.

She is survived by one son, Thomas (Kendra) Sobot; and one grandson, Ross, of Saxonburg; one sister, Alice Rushforth of Havertown, Pa.; one niece, Wendy (Trai) Rushforth of Havertown, Pa.; and two nephews, Alan (Anne) Rushforth of Bryn Mawr, Pa., and Raymond Rushforth of New Ringgold, Pa.

SOBOT — At her request, there will be no visitation or services for Diane M. Sobot, who died Friday, Aug. 26, 2022.

Memorial donations may be made to Concordia Lutheran Ministries, 134 Marwood Road, Cabot, PA 16023.
